November 30, 200817 yr I'm trying to copy stuff to my newly created UnRAID server.. It got stuck right away and i got a message on my XP box.. "The destination does not support long filenames. Please enter a new name for this file." I don't want to do that.. The file in question has the path/name D:\Backup\Busky15\My_Docs\2008_09_20_04_20_03_578F10.TIB The destination is: X:\Busky15\My_Docs The file before it copied fine with the name 2008_09_20_04_20_03_578F.TIB from the same path. Is there a config setting I'm missing here? Jim
December 1, 200817 yr Author Well I rebooted both systems.. and now I get a Cannot copy [filename]: the specified network name is no longer availible. But the networks is fine. This seems to be repeatable... It's huge file (> 22G) Any thoughts? Jim
December 1, 200817 yr I'm not aware of any other users having problems like this, so it must be a local issue to the XP machine. You are apparently mapping a network drive to X:, make sure that is working correctly and is persistent across reboots. What tool are you using to copy files?
December 1, 200817 yr Author make sure that is working correctly and is persistent across reboots. Ok.. I'll try another reboot.. but smaller files copy just fine.. And I'll try the big file copy to another winXP machine to be sure... What tool are you using to copy files? Windows drag and drop!
December 2, 200817 yr Are you using a User Share or a Disk Share? Could it give a message like this if the drive it was trying to put it on in the User share didn't have enough room left? Would explain why smaller files work. Other thoughts... Try copying file from command line. Do you have another local drive letter on your XP machine? What happens when you try to copy it there? You aren't by chance using FAT32 on D: are you?
December 2, 200817 yr Author Are you using a User Share or a Disk Share? Could it give a message like this if the drive it was trying to put it on in the User share didn't have enough room left? Would explain why smaller files work. User Share... The disks are empty though... Try copying file from command line. That worked fine... Do you have another local drive letter on your XP machine? What happens when you try to copy it there? Don't have one bigenough..(drive that is...) But I tried to another XP machine and it worked (xp -> xp) You aren't by chance using FAT32 on D: are you? Nope... NTFS
